Eluktronics RP-15 Laptop Review: The Ryzen 7 4800H Impresses Yet Again

Ultra light, ultra fast, and ultra loud. AMD's latest Renoir series is popping up on more and more gaming laptops and for good reason. If you can deal with the loud fan noise, then you won't be disappointed by the CPU performance of the surprisingly small Eluktronics RP-15.

Allen Ngo 👁, Published 05/28/2020 🇮🇹 🇷🇺 ...

Both OEMs and resellers are beginning to embrace AMD hardware much more than before all thanks to the promising 7 nm Renoir series. Eluktronics is one such reseller who is expected to ship its first 15.6-inch Ryzen 7 RP-15 gaming laptop by the end of July. The system is set to be fixed at the octa-core Ryzen 7 4800H CPU with GeForce RTX 2060 graphics and a 144 Hz 1080p matte display. More specifications and options on the RP-15 can be found on its product page here.

Direct competitors to the RP-15 include other thin-and-light 15.6-inch gaming laptops like the MSI GS66, Razer Blade 15, Asus Zephyrus S GX502, Lenovo Legion Y740-15, or the Acer Predator Triton series.

The RP-15 is derived from a white label chassis design meaning it's possible to find this exact model from other resellers under different brand names.

Case

Our first impression of the RP-15 is how surprisingly lightweight the system is. At just 1.9 kg, it's a few hundred grams lighter than competing systems like the Razer Blade 15 Base Model while being slightly lighter than the Asus Zephyrus GX502. It's closest in weight and size to the last generation MSI GS65.

On the flip side, chassis rigidity takes a hit as the lid and base are more flexible than the latest systems from Razer, MSI, and others where metal alloy skeletons have become common. Expect some minor creaking when attempting to twist its base. This isn't to say that the system is weak or poorly built, but it's certainly not as sound as some of the heavier alternatives.

Hinges are satisfactory, but we feel they could have been larger and more rigid for better longevity

Connectivity

Port options are unique in that the RP-15 offers two mini-DisplayPort ports whereas most other gaming laptops have dropped them completely for DisplayPort-over-USB. Thunderbolt 3 is not supported, either.

Input Devices

Keyboard

The keys are light in feedback with moderate clatter when compared to the deeper and quieter keys of the MSI GS65. We still prefer it over the Blade 15 keyboard which we find to be too shallow. The NumPad and arrow keys are the same size as the main QWERTY keys unlike on most other gaming laptops.

Touchpad

The clickpad is decent in size (11.5 x 7.5 cm) but still smaller than the ones on the MSI GS66 (14 x 6.5 cm) or Razer Blade 15 (13 x 8.0 cm). Cursor control is otherwise reliable and silky smooth especially on a 144 Hz display. Gliding slowly across the surface results in some sticking which is normal for more precise clicks.

The integrated mouse keys have a loud and satisfying "click" when pressed. Feedback, however, is a bit on the spongy side. You're going to want an external mouse if you plan on doing a lot of dragging and dropping.

Standard QWERTY layout. The power profile key next to the Power button toggles between Office/Gaming/Turbo

Clickpad works well for cursor control, but its integrated keys could have been firmer

Single-zone RGB backlight is available and all symbols are lit

Display

The RP-15 uses the same 144 Hz BOE NV156FHM-N4G IPS panel as found on the Lenovo Legion Y540-15, Xiaomi Mi Gaming 15, and some Schenker laptops like the XMG Neo 15. Thus, these systems share similar characteristics including the fast black-white response times and good contrast ratio of nearly 900:1.

* ... smaller is better

Color space is approximately 59 percent and 92 percent of the AdobeRGB and sRGB standards, respectively, to be similar to most other high-end gaming laptops. Users looking for deeper colors may want to consider other gaming laptops with OLED options or professional models like the Asus ProArt series.

X-Rite measurements reveal a display in need of calibration and an overly cool color temperature. After calibrating the panel ourselves, grayscale and color DeltaE values would improve from 5.4 to 1.7 and 5.01 to 2.52, respectively. Apply our calibrated ICM profile above to get the most out of the display since it is capable of reproducing almost all of sRGB.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
10.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 6 ms rise
10.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 4.4 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 24 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.1 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
17.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 6 ms rise
17.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 11.2 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 27 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17204 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Outdoor visibility is poor but otherwise average for its category since gaming laptop displays are not designed to overcome such bright ambient lighting. Remember to disable AMD Vari-Bright or else the maximum brightness of the display will drop to 263 nits.

Wide IPS viewing angles. Colors and contrast degrade if viewing from extreme angles

Performance

Processor

Raw CPU performance is where the RP-15 really shines. When Fan Boost mode (i.e., maximum fan mode) is active, the system returns a CineBench R20 multi-thread score of 4663 points to be noticeably faster than most - if not all - mobile Intel octa-core CPUs at the moment. Performance sustainability is also excellent when running CineBench R15 in a loop as scores remain relatively consistent throughout.

The major downside is that the laptop must be set to Fan Boost mode in order to get the most out of the CPU. When the feature is disabled, performance would drop by almost 12 percent to be slower than the Ryzen 9 4900HS but still faster than the Core i7-10875H.

See our dedicated page on the Ryzen 7 4800H for more technical information and benchmark comparisons.

Storage Devices

Two M.2 PCIe x4 bays are available for RAID configuration if desired. Our test unit comes with two 1 TB Phison PS5012 NVMe SSDs, but users can configure anywhere from none at all to 8 TB total.

We applaud the inclusion of a heat spreader for the M.2 SSDs which is uncommon for most laptops.

Two drives on our test unit, but they have not been configured for RAID

GPU Performance

The GeForce RTX 2060 performs where we expect it to be relative to other laptops equipped with the same GPU. When compared to a "proper" desktop RTX 2060, raw performance is about 15 to 20 percent slower.

Enabling Fan Boost mode will increase GPU performance by about 9 percent according to 3DMark Fire Strike (15388 points to 16808 points).

See our dedicated page on the mobile GeForce RTX 2060 for more technical information and benchmark comparisons. This particular GPU pairs very well with a 144 Hz panel since it tends to run most newer games in the 40 to 60 FPS range.

Emissions

System Noise

Fan noise is tied very closely to the preset Office, Gaming, and Fan Boost modes. If on Office mode, the system tends to hover around 32 dB(A) or lower when video streaming or browsing to be unobtrusive. If on Gaming or Fan Boost mode, however, fan noise would pulse higher and more frequently. Running Witcher 3 in Gaming mode and Fan Boost mode will cause a fan noise of 48.8 dB(A) and 54.1 dB(A), respectively, to be almost as loud as an Alienware m15 R2.

Cooling solution consists of dual ~50 mm fans with four heat pipes

Fan noise ramps up very quickly when running medium to medium-high loads
